It's because of tactics like these.

Military experts from around the world concluded Israel exceeded standards regarding civilian safety, often putting the lives of their own civilians and soldiers in danger in order to protect Palestinians.

No one supporting BDS cares about Palestinian lives.
Nor do they allow for Israel to protect its own civilians.
